Davide Italiano c8a7913f23 [SimplifyLibCalls] Add a new transformation: pow(exp(x), y) -> exp(x*y)
This one is enabled only under -ffast-math (due to rounding/overflows)
but allows us to emit shorter code.

Before (on FreeBSD x86-64):
4007f0:       50                      push   %rax
4007f1:       f2 0f 11 0c 24          movsd  %xmm1,(%rsp)
4007f6:       e8 75 fd ff ff          callq  400570 <exp2@plt>
4007fb:       f2 0f 10 0c 24          movsd  (%rsp),%xmm1
400800:       58                      pop    %rax
400801:       e9 7a fd ff ff          jmpq   400580 <pow@plt>
400806:       66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00    nopw   %cs:0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
40080d:       00 00 00

After:
4007b0:       f2 0f 59 c1             mulsd  %xmm1,%xmm0
4007b4:       e9 87 fd ff ff          jmpq   400540 <exp2@plt>
4007b9:       0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00    nopl   0x0(%rax)
